Education Quote by M.N. Bennet
““That was how education worked for the most part - someone disliked a system already in place and removed it without something new, or someone had a half-assed idea that sounded great in theory, but they impatiently tossed it out to the world and expected teachers to figure it out through trial and error. It's not as if these errors affect the kids or anything.””
